Description

We review recent progresses in the theory of hard exclusive processes. The hard scattering mechanism and the factorization of perturbative QCD amplitudes from wave-function-like quantities is now well understood. The effects of soft gluon radiation are controlled through Sudakov form factors which protect observables from dangerous end-point contributions. The phenomenology of this mature framework is eagerly waiting for precise experimental data in a domain where transfers are O (10 GeV2). (authors). 11 refs., 2 figs
